Re: Which one would it be???

Frank; We can certainly agree on the Perazzi factor. To each his own but it is the finest target gun I've ever shot. Shooting any smallbore vintage gun is a challenge on the clays course as they were made for field use. Maybe that's why I love shooting them. Especially a Fox. They are svelte between...

Re: Hausmann’s June 2025

Fear not. There will be targets everyone should hit and then there will be targets that only a few can hit. Either way you'll be having fun.

Re: Which one would it be???

I hate to agree with you Harry but you are spot on about the BSS. Bought mine in 89 or 90 to shoot steel shot at waterfowl. I can't even guess how many rounds I've put through her and not one hiccup. It's just feels kind of clubby but gets the job done. Now if this were a survival situation, all sen...

Re: A Sterling Turkey

Yes, congratulations on a nice bird with a great gun. Yep, an ounce of sixes is all you need when you get them in at 19yards. Nice going. I have yet to bag one with my SW 20 using 7 1/2's but it's coming.

Re: Hausmann’s June 2025

I’m hoping to head up for a day trip from the Lehigh Valley either Thursday or Friday depending on the weather. I hope to roll in shortly after 8:00 if anyone is interested in shooting the course. I’ll have 20 Ga and 12 Ga Foxes with me. Dennis You will walk right past the BoWhoop set-up Dennis. Ma...

Ithaca, like Lefever, had some of the nicest wood even on their lower grades.

Very nice Tom. Bring her along and try your hand at the Baby Whoop this year.
I agree, ejectors are not worth the expense to me.

Yes, thanks Craig for the idea and all the participants who shot. Now only if we could get only 5 shooters at Ernie's for the F/P challenge. Hint-Hint.

Re: What's the worst "shade tree mechanic" repair you have seen seen??

Worst and it was easy. Probably 12 years ago I bought a 12 gauge Sterly ejector gun very cheap with no picture posted on the forearm bottom. Gun arrived and the smith called me to come over. Gun had jb weld under the forearm to replace the barrel lug, which was gone. Jb weld was filed down to where...
